After completing the survey, VietGazprom will submit the project to Gazprom International for approval in March 2017.

Nguyen Duc Chinh, Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, said Quang Tri will support and create the most favourable conditions for VietGazprom to complete the survey as the Vietnamese Government is very interested in cooperation between Vietnamese and Russian businesses.

He also expected the project, if it is implemented, to boost the province’s socio-economic growth.
